Is there a right or wrong age to get married?are you against large age gaps between married couples?do you think it is ok to marry at 16 or wait until later after you have pursued a career? i would also like to hear from those who are actually married.thanks.

I don't think Lee and I will be getting married until I am at least 24, which is fine by me. Obviously, it is different for different people - if you are financially and physically able to at 16, then it is your decision. If those kids have been together since they are 10, then there is no harm in it. Maybe people should have to wait a certain amount of time into a relationship instead of there being an age... I suppose that wouldn't really work. Shame, though. x

actually there is no right age to get married as long as you are ready and stable...also, you have to consider that you are financially stable wherein you can sustain the needs and wants of your family, you must be emotionally stable in handling responsibilities, spiritually stable and physically stable...actually getting married or having your own family is a big responsibility and obligation that you have to handle...its not a joke...its sacred...so before you will settling down make sure that you are ready to face the another path of your life :)

i dont think there is a right time to get married. i guess it should be are you stable enough to get married? young people today marries at a very young age wherein they still dont have the money to finance the daily expenses. they would still let their parents buy the things they wanted and other expenses needed. I think getting married should be planned well. it doesnt have to be that when you met a guy and you like him or you are impregnated by your boyfriend you nake a dicision to marry him. it only gives you other problem. getting married is not the solution to everything. one should think if they are stable enough to settle down wherein they would not ask their families for the daily expenses. they should be able to stand by their own and can survive the problems they were about to encounter. getting married is not like a food where in after you eat it and you dont like the taste you can spit it out. getting married should be thoroughly decided to whom and when is the time.
